WSJT-X support

Sdrberry does support send and receive wsjt-x messages for FT8 and FT4. In sdrberry_settings.cfg there are a nummber of settings which can be adjusted to suite your requirement. An example is shown below.

[wsjtx]
73 = ""
bandwidth = "4500"
call = "PA0PHH"
freqFT4 = {"1840", "3568", "5375", "7047", "10140", "14080", "18104", "21140", "28180"}
freqFT8 = {"1840", "3573", "5357", "7074", "10133", "14074", "18100", "21074", "28074", "28077"}
locator = "JO22"
reserverd = {"POTA"}
rx = "1200"
tableviewsize = "50"
tx = "1300"
url = "192.168.88.16"
waterfallgain = "20"

73 = "73" or "" to indicate the send message box has all messages for FT8. 73 = "R73" will merge the RRR and 73 into RR73 bandwitdh indicates the selected audio bandwidth before decoding, standard is 4500 Hz. freqFT4 and freqFT8 are the default wsjt-x frequencies reserverd is not used at the moment. rx and tx are the frequencies used by wsjt-x (rx is not used) tx is the transmit tone. This can be adjusted also in the GUI. tableviewsize increases the size of the tables and decreases the waterfall (or vica versa) url is the ip address or dns name of the PC running a udp server, like NN1MM or Qlog Sdrberry will send udp packages conform wsjt-x format to logging software. (logs are also stored to disk, sd card, usb-stick)

image To start receiving press "Monitor", the received message will appear in the left pane. You can click on the green rows (CQ). Ans send the default selected message. To finish the QSO just select the message you want to send and press "tx" In the left lower pane the conversations are recorded, you can select the QSO you want to respond to in the left lower pane. image

Sdrberry can request signal report from pskreporter. Press the pskreporter button in the bottom screen of the wsjtx tab and sdrberry will query pskreport with the callsign used by sdrberry.
